Ucluelet Aquarium

Opens 10am-5pm everyday, even weekends and holidays!

This is the first, and only, catch and release aquarium in British Columbia, releasing all of the animals on the aquarium back into nature. Because of the sustainable catch and release program all of the animals are ones that can be found in the Pacific Rim. Although, due to deep-sea conditions many of the organisms are ones that are rarely seen. The main purpose of the Ucluelet aquarium is education rather than purely entertainment. Their education programs offer hands on activities; touch tanks and microscopes, an arts and crafts station, as well as fun and interactive challenges.
